Launch Policies

• Each flight must be accompanied by a flight card. These cards can be picked up at the Range Safety Officer’s table.
• Do not install igniters in High Power motors (H & up) before proceeding to the pad.
• Do not arm electronics or pyro-devices until rocket is on the launch pad.

1. Fill out a flight card. If this is a certification flight, make sure the correct box is checked on your launch card, and tell the Launch Control Officer (LCO).
2. Proceed to the RSO table. The Range Safety Officer will check your rocket and must approve the rocket prior to flight.
3. Take your place in the launch line.
4. When the LCO announces that the range is clear, proceed to your assigned pad and prepare your rocket for flight.
5. As you return from setting up your rocket on the pad, leave your flight card at the LCO table.
6. SARA will utilize a centralized launch system for this event.  The LCO will fire the rocket.
7. If your rocket motor fails to ignite, you may be asked to remove the rocket from the pad and install a new igniter. Take your launch card from the LCO table if you remove your rocket from the pads.
